In Reply to: Re: High-End DVD players, Toshiba 9200 vs. Arcam DV-88 ?? posted by audioman on March 29, 2001 at 23:11:29:
Yes, I believe the DV-88 would give you alot more than competent sound and a clean picture. I was replacing a Pioneer Elite DV-37 when I auditioned these players. I thought the Arcam delivered a truer picture, better blacks, better saturations, the whites were crisper. The progressive scan was going to be an option upgrade at the time. The sound on the DV-88 was better than the DV-37 but the difference in the soundstage and the clarity on the PMDT was just startling. Talk to David at Peachtree Acoustics about the Arcam, he's in Mount Pleasant, SC 843-881-2387

I've viewed many players (Toshiba 3006, Toshiba 5109, Toshiba 6200, Denon DVD-3000, Pioneer DV-09, Sony DVP-S7000) via my front projection setup and 3 rear projection sets. The differences in picture quality are marginal. Some of the players have more artifacts than others (especially the non-progressive units), but most people wouldn't even notice this. All are plenty enjoyable to watch.
rich,sounds like you have had a lot of experience with DVD players.
